ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for generating and displaying a schema diagram of a database includes a schema diagrammer that automatically queries a database to determine its objects and relationships, and generates a graphical representation of the database in the form of a schema diagram that is displayed to the user. The schema diagrammer may optionally include a search filter to potentially constrain which objects and relationships in the database are included in a diagram data file, and a display filter to potentially constrain which objects and relationships stored in the diagram data file are displayed in the schema diagram.
